In related news, we went shopping for new toys...specifically ones that will amplify our violins and cello. We headed up to Chicago Strings in Evanston, IL and found what can only be described as mystically enchanted super pickups. We picked up a pair for our violinists, and we'll acquire the cello model later this week.
